Ornamental Peppers

I took these photos at Reiman Gardens in Ames, IA a couple of weeks ago.   I love ornamental peppers, the second photo is Black Pearl, I am going to try to find seeds of it for next season.  

Camera Critter Saturday-Black Swallowtail Caterpillars

I took these a few weeks back hoping to have a photo of the butterfly to go with them, but no such luck, I must have been at work or another place when they came out of their cocoons :(.  I only saw one Black Swallowtail butterfly in my yard this year and by the time I got my camera she was gone.  They are probably my favorite butterfly as they were one of the 1st ones I was able to lure into my yard years ago with fennel.

Gardening Buddies-Cavaliers

Over the weekend while I was out blog reading I happened across several Cavalier websites, I had to post a few of my 20 zillion pictures of my Cavis.  They are the sweetest little dogs around, they love being outside with us while we are working.
